Total Time : 45 minutes
Serves : 6 servings
INGREDIENTS
  • 1 pound 80% lean ground beef
  • 1 pound bulk chorizo sausage
  • 3/4 cup diced queso fresco cheese
  • 1 tablespoon pure vegetable oil
  • 3/4 cup sliced onion
  • 1/2 cup sliced red bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup sliced poblano peppers or green belle peppers
  • 1 Serrano chile seeded and sliced
  • 1 ripe avocado peeled, pitted and diced
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup thick and chunky salsa

DIRECTIONS

In large bowl, combine ground beef and chorizo; salt and pepper to taste. Form into 12 (5-inch) patties. Place cheese in the center of 6 patties; top with remaining patties. Press edges together, pinching to completely seal. Set aside.

In large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat; add onion and peppers; salt and pepper to taste. Sauté until softened and caramelized (about 8-10 minutes).

Meanwhile, prepare grill to medium heat. Place burgers on grill. Grill, turning once, about 7-14 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 160°F on an instant read thermometer.

In medium bowl, combine avocado, sour cream and salsa; salt and pepper to taste. Mash to desired consistency; spread over Kaiser rolls. Top with burgers and caramelized onions and peppers.
